One of the first collaborations "Team Volcanic Blaze" has had within their freeware sector, they worked with "NoFutuer" and "Syogura Project". I must say that it is admiteddly a very poor rendition of Konami's "Yie Ar Kung-Fu" which in several cases served as the basis for future video games within the beat-em-up/fighting genre. However, this game takes YAKF's formula but learns little from it.

Playing as Mei Wu-Shun or "Wu-chan", you go through five simple stages using a combination of a direction plus a button to execute simple punching/kicking manuevers. The problem is, where as the enemies in YAKF require different strategies and were more diverse, all characters sans one can be beaten just by holding down and pressing kick. One of the characters, Mitsuru, makes things even easier as you don't have to jump over to him-- he'll come towards you from the start. The only exceptional character is the "real boss", Zeed, who's insanely cheap and is beaten sorta by luck. After him, you fight your twin, Minghua, who succumbs to prior "strategies" and ends the game.

This is the game, beaten from beginning to end in under three minutes. It's free, so if you really want it, it's at:
